Immerse yourself in the addictive and deceptively simple world of papercutting with Edinburgh artist Papercut Punk.

Join me, Papercut Punk for another wonderfully relaxed two hour workshop discovering the simple joy of papercutting.

Working from my ready made templates or using your own ideas, I will guide you through the basics and cheerlead you along to make some lovely pieces of original art.

Mindful and fun, my beginner friendly workshops are a great way to discover a new obsession - be warned, it is addictive...

Birds, animals, people, flowers, abstract art - you will be amazed by how simple and cheap papercutting is and how much joy can be made from a single sheet of paper and a sharp knife.

The workshop is held in the upper hall of Portobello Town Hall which is up a flight of stairs.
